Le rapport de l’individu à son environnement urbain, déjà complexe, se complexifie aujourd’hui davantage du fait de la prolifération de nouvelles pratiques de mobilité. De nouveaux espaces urbains sont créés, appuyés par des politiques, des cultures et des moyens. Pour s'en persuader, il suffit de rappeler que l'aptitude à se mouvoir est une faculté essentielle de tout individu, une condition de survie de toutes les sociétés qui détermine le degré de développement du territoire. Notre étude s'attache à montrer comment chaque type d'acteur concerné conçoit et organise les rapports entre mobilité et territoire. Nous étudions comment les différentes stratégies s'inscrivent dans l'espace urbain et nous aident à mieux appréhender ses atouts et ses limites et comment se pratiquent les mobilités urbaines. Nous proposons des grilles de lecture de ces dernières à partir du cas de la ville de N’Djamena, la capitale tchadienne. Cette étude traite de la mobilité urbaine à partir de l’analyse du fonctionnement actuel du système de transport ainsi que des stratégies de gestion urbaine et d’adaptation aux mobilités par la population de N’Djamena. Différentes stratégies sont mises en œuvre aussi bien par la population que par les opérateurs de transports qui sont souvent des particuliers travaillant en collaboration avec les différents syndicats. Pour prendre en considération les différents aspects et enjeux socio-spatiaux des pratiques des mobilités urbaines à travers la ville de N’Djamena, il s’est révélé pertinent et heuristique de croiser les différents outils et disciplines que constituent l’urbanisme, la sociologie, la géographie et l’ingénierie des transports. L'espace n'est jamais donné, il est toujours construit. Ce travail tente ainsi de définir dans un premier temps les différents concepts en lien avec les mobilités urbaines tantôt confondus, souvent antagonistes, leurs origines et leurs interprétations. Nous démontrons que la mobilité se présente comme un concept soulevant des enjeux d’ordre social, urbanistique, économique, géographique, etc. Dans un second temps, ce travail analyse les modalités d’adaptation de la population face aux offres de transports que propose le secteur dans des conditions d’insuffisance accrue à travers toute la ville de N’Djamena en termes de planification, de gestion et de moyen de transport. C’est ainsi que cette étude aborde les dysfonctionnements du système des transports de la capitale tchadienne ainsi que les stratégies d’adaptation de la population, en particulier celles de la périphérie que représentent le 1er, le 8e et le 9e arrondissement. Cette étude analyse ainsi les origines et les causes de la prolifération du système des transports que sont les mototaxis. Ces derniers, apparus dans les années soixante-dix, constituent aujourd’hui une pratique qui évolue entre acceptation citoyenne et refus politique. / The relation of the individual to his urban environment, already complex, is more complex today because of the proliferation of new mobility practices. New urban spaces are created, supported by policies, cultures and resources.To be convinced of it, we need to remember that the ability to move is an essential right of any individual, a condition of survival of all societies which determines the degree of development of the territory. Our study attempts to show how each type of actor concerned designs and organizes the link between mobility and territory. We study how different strategies are part of the urban space and help us to better understand its strengths and limitations, and how to practice urban mobility. We offer reading grids of the latterbased on the case of the city of N'Djamena, the capital of Chad.This study deals with urban mobility from the analysis of the current transport system functioning, as well as urban management and adaptation strategies tomobilities by the population of N'Djamena. Different strategies are implemented both by the population and by transport operators who are often individuals working in collaboration with various unions. To consider the various socio-spatial aspects and issues of urban mobility practices through the city of N'Djamena, it has been relevant and heuristic to cross the different tools and disciplines of urban planning, sociology, geography and transportation engineering. Space is never given, it is always built. This work thus attempts to define at first the various concepts related to urban mobility – sometimes confused, often antagonistic –, their origins and their interpretations. We demonstrate that mobility is as a concept rising social, urban planning, economic and geographical issues, amongst others. Secondly, this work analyzes the modalities of adaptation of the population to transport offers, in a context of increasing deficiencyconditions in planning, management and conveyancethroughout the city of N'Djamena. Thus, this study addresses the shortcomings of Chadian capital transport system as well as the adaptation strategies of the population, particularly within the periphery that is the 1st, 8th and 9th districts.This study analyzes the origins and causes of the proliferation of bikecabs within the transport system. The latter, appeared in the seventies, is today a practice that evolves between citizen acceptance and political refusal.

Estas transformações e mudanças na estrutura e função de sistemas socioecológicos podem ser percebidas por populações humanas. As comunidades de pescadores artesanais de Ubatuba, estado de São Paulo, Brasil, que ainda vivem diretamente dos recursos pesqueiros percebem tais mudanças e têm se adaptado a elas ao longo do tempo, a fim de manter suas subsistências e renda. O conhecimento ecológico local (CEL) a respeito dos sistemas socioecológicos costeiros destas comunidades pode auxiliar na redução da vulnerabilidade e aumento da capacidade adaptativa, em faces de mudanças ambientais globais. Este estudo visa contribuir com informações sobre mudanças ambientais globais, incluindo as mudanças climáticas, bem como seus impactos sobre o ambiente local e as populações humanas, e verificar como populações de pescadores artesanais do litoral norte de São Paulo percebem e se adaptam a tais mudanças. A hipótese considerada neste estudo consiste em que o CEL de pescadores artesanais com relação ao ambiente natural é utilizado para reduzir a vulnerabilidade e aumentar a capacidade adaptativa de comunidades de pesca artesanal costeira frente às mudanças ambientais globais, dentre elas as mudanças climáticas. Os resultados apontam que as comunidades pesqueiras do litoral norte de São Paulo fazem uso do CEL para entender os efeitos das mudanças ambientais nos ecossistemas costeiros, assim como têm capacidade de se adaptarem a tais mudanças ao longo do tempo, diminuindo a vulnerabilidade de sistemas socioecológicos costeiros frente às mudanças ambientais globais. A análise em nível local da percepção de mudanças ambientais e sociais por populações humanas subsidia o entendimento dos efeitos dessas mudanças em ecossistemas complexos e este entendimento pode contribuir para futuros planos de manejo em áreas costeiras brasileiras / Abstract: Biophysical transformations on land, in the oceans and the atmosphere, provoked by human activities and natural processes have increased considerably since the beginning of twentieth century. These changes, with affect the structure and function of coupled socio-ecological systems, are being observed by human society. Coastal fisheries communities of Ubatuba, São Paulo state, Brazil, highly dependent upon fisheries observe such changes and have adapted to them over time in order to maintain communities, livelihood activities and income. The detailed local ecological knowledge (LEK) of these communities regarding coastal socio-ecological systems can help reducing the vulnerability and increasing adaptive capacity, in face of global environmental change. This study contributes with knowledge global environmental change, the impacts on the local environment and human beings and how the communities realize and adapt to these changes. The hypothesis drivinhg study is that LEK of coastal fishers about the natural environment contributes to reduce vulnerability and to increase adaptive capacity in the smll-scale coastal fisheries in the face of global environmental change, including climate change. The findings show that the small-scale coastal fishers of the North coast of São Paulo make use of LEK for understanding the effects of the environmental change on the coastal ecosystems, as well as how they can adapt to such changes over time, thereby reducing the vulnerability of coastal socio-ecological systems in face of global environmental changes. An analytical insight into the local level regarding the perception of environmental and social change are essential to provide a better understanding about the effects of diverse changes in the complex ecosystems. Such understanding can contribute to future design of resources management plans in Brazilian coastal areas. / Doutorado / Aspectos Biológicos de Sustentabilidade e Conservação / Doutora em Ambiente e Sociedade

Utiliza-se, desde uma articulação metodológica entre Paul Ricoeur e Ernesto Laclau, a história oral, explorando categorias como trabalho artesanal, economia solidária, economia popular, educação informal. Os dados coletados foram transcritos e analisados de forma cautelosa, a partir de categorias estabelecidas pelo encontro entre teoria e dados empíricos. Concluímos que a identidade dos pescadores é essencialmente discursiva, construindo ou perdendo potência política na medida de sua capacidade de não se deixar enredar pelas lógicas sociais dominantes, hegemonizadas pelos interesses do capital e, especificamente falando, da pesca industrial. Nisto, a educação informal se relaciona intrinsecamente com a pesca artesanal, sendo essencial a sua manutenção, na medida em que possa se contrapor aos efeitos nefastos de uma escolarização voltada para o mercado. / We investigate the relationship between the informal education and the maintenance of artisanal fisheries and the livelihood of fishermen in the colony of fishermen Z-9 in São José da Coroa Grande, a city of the southern coast of Pernambuco. We used, since a methodology joint between Paul Ricoeur and Ernesto Lacrau, the oral history, exploring categories such as craftsmanship, solidarity economy, popular economy, informal education. The collected data were transcribed and analysed carefully, using categories established by the encounter between theory and empirical data. We concluded that the identity of the fishermen is essentially discursive, building or losing political power to the extent of its ability to not to get caught by the dominant social logic, equalized by the interests of the Capital and, specifically, by the Industrial fisheries. This informal education is closelyrelated to artisanal fisheries, being essencial for its maintainance, to the extent that it can counteract the harmful effects of a market-oriented schooling.

Fundamentado na inter-relação dos sistemas naturais, sociais e culturais, esse estudo procurou compreender como se organiza a pesca da manjuba (Anchoviella lepidentostole) em Iguape/ SP, as dinâmicas de apropriação dos espaços produtivos e os conhecimentos envolvidos na prática dessa atividade. Do mesmo modo, objetivou compreender quais os fundamentos que viabilizam o uso compartilhado dos recursos pesqueiros. A partir dessas concepções foram descritas as lógicas comunitárias que permeiam as formas de acesso e exercem a manutenção e a gestão desses espaços.Os contornos do trabalho foram delimitados pelos conhecimentos tradicionais dos pescadores, que, fomentaram, juntamente com as inclinações teóricas utilizadas, o diálogo com o conhecimento cientifico. Buscou-se, dessa forma, valorizar a articulação dos saberes, a interação entre Sociedade e Natureza a fim de colaborar com as discussões contemporâneas sobre o manejo dos recursos naturais. / Based on the ecological, social and cultural interaction, this work has searched for the understanding of Manjuba fishing organization (Anchoviella lepidentostole) in the city of Iguape, (São Paulo Brazil), the dynamic of productive marine space appropriation and the knowledge involved in this practice. At the same time, looked for a comprehension of the fishing resource sharing fundamentals. These concepts were the foundation to the description of the local rules for management that are used by artisanal fishers, and for aspects of territoriality. This work borders were limited by the traditional fishers knowledge, that, together with the theory inclinations foment the scientific knowledge dialog. The final objective was demonstrating the interaction value of the human and nature, include the importance in using local rules for natural fishing resources management.

El proyecto de tesis propone revertir la situación en la que se encuentra la Caleta de Chorrillos, un Puerto pesquero artesanal que no cuenta con las infraestructuras necesarias ni condiciones sanitarias que requiere dicha actividad. Para su renovación, se toman en cuenta las necesidades de la comunidad pesquera y de la comunidad de Chorrillos, así como de las actividades existentes de la zona. Con ello se propone un Complejo pesquero artesanal productivo, comercial y turístico, en donde se logre integrar las expectativas del pescador artesanal, con las expectativas de uso recreativo que se demandan en la costa. Es así, que se propone un diseño arquitectónico que permita una simultaneidad de usos en un mismo espacio, y un diseño arquitectónico que actúe como vínculo entre la tierra y el mar, en donde ésta se inserte de una manera respetuosa en su entorno natural y que promueva una mejor relación del hombre con el mar. / This project seeks to change and transform the actual situation of the Caleta of Chorrillos: an artisanal fishing port that doesn’t have the necessary infrastructure nor sanitary conditions required by this activity. It’s important to prioritize the needs of the local fishing and civil community of Chorrillos, as well as the local social activities for its renovation. This renovation proposes a productive and commercial fishing port that’s also a tourist attraction, and that integrates the local fishermen’s expectations with the daily social and recreational activities of the coastal promenade. This is why the objective of this thesis is too propose an architectural design that permits a simultaneity of uses in the same space and an architectural design that works as a link between land and sea. This design will blend respectfully with its natural surroundings and will develop a better relationship between Men and Nature. / Tesis

Brazil is a country with enormous social differences and, alongside the advancements of the industrialdevelopment and the creation of a modern society, a large part of the Brazilian population lives under fairly poor conditions, providing their subsistence by the practice of traditional knowledge; employing primitive tools and methods. One example is the sector of artisanal fishery, which at present accounts for about half of the active fishermen in Brazil (Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego, 2005). Even though these so called artisanal populations are not part of the industrialisation, they commonly suffer the consequences of the intense exploitation and unsustainable use of natural resources caused by the industrial development. The purpose of this report is to describe how the sustainability of the local artisanal fishermen population in Baía de Guanabara was affected by the oil spill at the Duque deCaxias refinery (REDUC) in January 2000. A further objective of the report is to answer how asustainable development of this population can be promoted in the future. In order to fulfil these objectives a field study was conducted in Baía de Guanabara, which included local fishermen fromfour different colonies and associations in the bay and key informants representing other stakeholders involved in the oil spill. In the report the impact of the accident on the artisanal fishermen population of Baía de Guanabara is described and several measures are discussed, which might be valuable inorder to promote a sustainable development of artisanal fishermen communities in the future. / www.ima.kth.se

[pt] A alimentação humana passa, periodicamente, por transformações que impactam o comportamento do consumidor e a forma como performam suas práticas alimentares. Nesse âmbito, as mudanças mais recentes mostram a maior procura por produtos alimentícios artesanais e, consequentemente, uma tendência em consumo alimentar. Apesar da popularidade dos produtos alimentícios artesanais, a definição de alimento artesanal é imprecisa. Isso indica que o alimento artesanal pode ter variadas significações a depender do contexto social. Questiona-se se estas significações fazem com que os produtos alimentícios artesanais adquiram distintas representações para os consumidores a ponto de transformar regimes de gosto. Diante disso, o presente trabalho se propôs a investigar como se dá o processo de significação dos alimentos artesanais pelos consumidores e quais são suas relações com o desenvolvimento de normas do gosto. Para tanto, adotou-se a abordagem teórico-metodológica da semiótica discursiva francesa, visto que ela se dedica a explicar as condições de geração de significados e produção de sentido contidas não apenas nos textos, mas nas práticas cotidianas dos indivíduos, em uma perspectiva de articulação social. A análise dos dados coletados por meio de entrevistas individuais e observação resultou na identificação de diferentes significados reunidos em quatro temáticas principais relacionadas à produção, diferenciação, qualidade e relações com o mercado. Além disso, descobriu-se cinco narrativas de consumo que possibilitam a formação de três normas de gosto. Os achados da pesquisa possuem relevância e sugerem implicações tanto acadêmicas quanto gerenciais, considerando os diferentes agentes que atuam no mercado de alimentos. / [en] Human nutrition periodically experiences transformations that impact consumer behavior and the way they perform their eating practices. In this context, the most recent changes show a greater demand for artisanal food products and, consequently, a trend in food consumption. Despite the popularity of artisanal food products, the definition of artisanal food is imprecise. This means that artisanal food can have different meanings depending on the social context. The question is whether these meanings enable artisanal food products to acquire different representations for consumers to the point of transforming taste regimes. Considering this, this study set out to investigate how the signification process of artisanal foods by consumers takes place and what are its relations with the development of taste norms. To this end, the theoretical-methodological approach of French discursive semiotics was adopted, since it is dedicated to explaining the conditions for generating meanings and the production of sense contained not only in texts, but in the everyday practices of individuals, from a perspective of social articulation. Analysis of the data collected through individual interviews and observation resulted in the identification of different meanings grouped into four main themes related to production, differentiation, quality, and relations with the market. It also uncovered five consumer narratives that enable the formation of three taste norms. The research findings are relevant and suggest both academic and managerial implications, considering the different agents that operate in the food market.

<p>The present study is one of the first attempts to analyze the societal importance of seagrasses (marine flowering plants) from a Natural Resource Management perspective, using a social-ecological systems (SES) approach. The interdisciplinary study takes place in East Africa (Western Indian Ocean, WIO) and includes in-depth studies in Chwaka Bay, Zanzibar, Tanzania. Natural and social sciences methods were used. The results are presented in six articles, showing that seagrass ecosystems are rich in seagrass species (13) and form an important part of the SES within the tropical seascape of the WIO. Seagrasses provide livelihoods opportunities and basic animal protein, in from of seagrass associated fish e.g. Siganidae and Scaridae. Research, management and education initiatives are, however, nearly non-existent. In Chwaka Bay, the goods and ecosystem services associated with the meadows and also appreciated by locals were fishing and collection grounds as well as substrate for seaweed cultivation. Seagrasses are used as medicines and fertilizers and associated with different beliefs and values. Dema (basket trap) fishery showed clear links to seagrass beds and provided the highest gross income per capita of all economic activities. All showing that the meadows provide social-ecological resilience. Drag-net fishery seems to damage the meadows. Two ecological studies show that artisanal seaweed farming of red algae, mainly done by women and pictured as sustainable in the WIO, has a thinning effect on seagrass beds, reduces associated macrofauna, affects sediments, changes fish catch composition and reduces diversity. Furthermore, it has a negative effect on i.a. women’s health. The two last papers are institutional analyses of the human-seagrass relationship. A broad approach was used to analyze regulative, normative and cultural-cognitive institutions. Cooperation and conflict take place between different institutions, interacting with their slow or fast moving characteristics, and are thus fundamental in directing the system into sustainable/unsustainable paths. Ecological knowledge was heterogeneous and situated. Due to the abundance of resources and high internal control, the SES seems to be entangled in a rigidity trap with the risk of falling into a poverty trap. Regulations were found insufficient to understand SES dynamics. “Well” designed organizational structures for management were found insufficient for “good” institutional performance. The dynamics between individuals embedded in different social and cultural structures showed to be crucial. Bwana Dikos, monitoring officials, placed in villages or landing sites in Zanzibar experienced four dilemmas – kinship, loyalty, poverty and control – which decrease efficiency and affect resilience. Mismatches between institutions themselves, and between institutions and cognitive capacities were identified. Some important practical implications are the need to include seagrass meadows in management and educational plans, addressing a seascape perspective, livelihood diversification, subsistence value, impacts, social-ecological resilience, and a broad institutional approach.</p>

Les transports artisanaux servent souvent à combler un vide laissé par les transports publics (organisés par l’État) dans les pays du Sud global. En prenant le cas de Hanoi (Vietnam), ce mémoire aborde le rôle de la mototaxi dans les habitudes de mobilité, ainsi que son potentiel à agir comme complément modal au transport public actuel et à venir. Cette recherche met en exergue la relation entre transport public et mototaxi, basée sur des observations directes, des entretiens et une enquête auprès d’usagers du transport public. On y découvre que les usagers du transport public ne les intègrent que sporadiquement à leurs pratiques intermodales et multimodales, en raison de prix trop élevés et de manquement à la sécurité. Parallèlement, des compagnies de mototaxi, récemment fondées et qui promettent des services plus sécuritaires et une tarification claire (grâce à l’utilisation de compteurs), prospèrent à Hanoi, alors que les mototaxis indépendantes voient leur clientèle diminuer. Ces compagnies doivent leur succès à leur capacité à offrir des services bien adaptés aux conditions locales (rues étroites, circulation dense, etc.) et aux besoins des hanoiens (en terme de sécurité, notamment) et ouvrent de nouvelles opportunités dans les pratiques intermodales et multimodales. / Informal transport often fill a gap left unfilled by formal transport in many cities of the Global South. Using the case of Hanoi (Vietnam), this thesis explores the role played by mototaxis in the urban mobility behaviors as well as its potential to complement formal public transit. This research sheds light on the relationship between public transit (formal) and mototaxi (informal), based on direct observations, interviews and a transit user survey. We find that public transit users only sporadically integrate them in intermodal and multimodal journeys. This is due to negative perceptions regarding safety and cost of mototaxi services and feelings of being swindled on the price. We further find that as freelance mototaxi drivers are seeing their market decrease, newly established mototaxi companies (promising safer services and using meters) thrive in Hanoi. These companies’ success (with both transit and non-transit users) is due to their ability to offer a service well adapted to local conditions (narrow streets, traffic jams, etc.) and to users’ needs with regard to mobility and safety. This innovation in informal transport calls for greater attention from planners and policy makers as is opens new opportunities to encourage intermodal and multimodal behaviours.

A atividade pesqueira é uma forte característica das populações humanas litorâneas, como os caiçaras do litoral sul de São Paulo. Ao realizar a pesca de forma artesanal, esses pescadores exploram o ambiente aquático de forma peculiar. Para manter e recriar seu meio de subsistência, adquirem conhecimentos profundos sobre a natureza e seus ciclos. Em suas atividades produtivas, estabelecem e mantém grande diversidade de interações diretas com o ambiente. Nas últimas décadas, entretanto, essas populações vêm incorporado novas atividades econômicas, como a prestação de serviços. O turismo associado a pesca esportiva eventualmente proporciona renda alternativa para os pescadores. Estes prestam serviços diversos e aplicam seus conhecimentos sobre os recursos pesqueiros à nova prática. Essa realidade traz novos desafios para a população caiçara e seu modo de vida. Diante disso, o presente trabalho teve três objetivos centrais e assim três linas de investigação. (1) Análise da atividade de pesca artesanal em relação: aos métodos e pontos de pesca utilizados, à sazonalidade e espécies de peixes capturadas e às condições ambientais que influenciam a atividade pesqueira, segundo o conhecimento dos pescadores artesanais. Também foram estudados dentro desse objetivo, as relações dos pescadores com outras atividades econômicas. (2) Estudo etnoictiológico, abordando aspectos de morfologia e comportamento dos peixes, com ênfase em sua etnoecologia. Foram identificadas ainda, as correspondências e divergências entre o etnoconhecimento caiçara e a literatura cientifica. (3) Caracterização da pesca esportiva praticada nas comunidades caiçaras estudadas, traçando o perfil dos pescadores esportivos. Foram analisadas suas relações com os pescadores artesanais e possíveis influências em modo de vida. A presente pesquisa foi realizada nas comunidades caiçaras da Barra do Ribeira e Jairê (Iguape), Carijo e Porto Cubatão (Cananéia) e Pedrinhas (Ilha Comprida). Nas cinco comunidades estudadas foram constatadas algumas características em comum quanto aos aspectos analisados. A pesca artesanal ainda se caracteriza como uma das principais fontes de renda. Sua prática diária, ainda é bastante freqüente, evidenciando sua forte presença no cotidiano das comunidades caiçaras. Entretanto foram observadas outras atividades econômicas, associadas à pesca esportiva em três das comunidades estudadas. Segundo os pescadores, a produção pesqueira é influenciada por variáveis como fases da lua, marés e precipitações. O etnoconhecimento orienta a atividade pesqueira tradicional e vem sendo aplicado a outras atividades econômicas. Este é o caso da coleta de iscas naturais a serem vendidas aos pescadores esportivos. Ainda existe entre os pescadores artesanais, um extenso conhecimento ecológico sobre os peixes. Também se constatou uma elevada concordância entre o etnoconhecimento e o conhecimento cientifico. Em três das comunidades, vem ocorrendo intensificação do turismo associado à pesca esportiva. Constatou-se que nesses locais, esta vem disputando recursos e espaços com a pesca artesanal. Dessa forma, vem acarretando alterações na rotina dos caiçaras; alterações estas, ainda não avaliadas ecológica e socioculturalmente. A expansão da pesca esportiva requer conhecimento e planejamento para prevenir efeitos ambientais e socioculturais negativos. São necessários estudos sobre os seus impactos na dinâmica das populações locais e estoques pesqueiros. (O presente trabalho está inserido no projeto: “Os Peixes e Pesca na Mata Atlântica no Sul do Estado de São Paulo". Este projeto é coordenado pelo Dr. Walter Barrella e financiado pelo Programa Biota/ Fapesp - processo no 99/04529-7). / The fishery characterizes coastal human populations, as the caiçaras from south coast of São Paulo state. By making the fishery in an artisanal method, these fishermen explore the aquatic environment in a peculiar way. To maintain and recreate their subsistence system, the fishermen acquire a considerable and significant knowledge about the nature and its cycles. In their productive activities, they establish and maintain large diversity of direct interactions with their environment. However, over the last few decades these populations have incorporated new economic activities, as service rendering. The tourism associated to sportive fishery its, eventually, an alternative form of income to the fisherman. They provide several forms of services and apply their knowledge about fishery resources to the new activity. Such a new reality brings out new challenges to the caiçara population and its traditional way of life. The present work had three central objectives and so, three lines of investigation. (1) Analysis of the artisanal fishery activity related to the methods and fishery points used, the seasonality and captured fish species and the environmental conditions that influence the fishery activity, according to the artisanal fisherman knowledge. The relationships between the fishermen and other economic activities were also studied. (2) An ethnoictiological study concerning aspects of fish morphology and behavior, emphasizing its ethnoecology. The correspondences and divergences between the caiçara ethnoknowledge and the scientific literature were also identified. (3) The characterization of sportive fishery practiced in the studied caiçara communities, tracing the sportive fishermen profile. The relationship with the artisanal fishermen and possible influences in their way of life were also analyzed. The present research was carried out in the caiçara communities of Barra do Ribeira, and Jairê (Iguape city), Carijo, and Porto Cubatão (Cananéia city), and Pedrinhas (Ilha Comprida City). The data collection was carried out by using interviews, direct observations, and biological material collection. In all the five studied communities, some common characteristics related to the analyzed aspects were verified. The artisanal fishery still characterizes itself as one of the main income sources. Its dairy practice is still quite frequent, showing its strong presence in the quotidian of the caiçaras communities. Nevertheless, other economic activities related to the sportive fishery in three of the studied communities were observed. According to the fishermen, the fishery production is influenced by variables as moon phase, tide and rainfall. The ethnoknowledge guides the traditional fishery activity and has been applied to the other economic activities. For instance, the collection of natural fishing bait to sell to the sportive fisherman. There is still a large ecological knowledge about the fishes among the artisanal fisherman. It was also verified a high correspondence between the ethnoknowledge of the artisanal fisherman and the scientific knowledge. In three of the communities studied, tourism associated to sportive fishery has been intensified, competing for resources and spaces with the artisanal fishery, leading to alterations in the routine of the caiçaras, which have not yet been evaluated in ecological and sociocultural terms. The increase of the sportive fishery demands knowledge and planning to prevent negative sociocultural and environmental effects. Studies about its impact on the local population dynamics and fishery stocks are necessary.
